: Tennessee Law BlogTN Nursing Home Law Blog Follow-Ups: Madison Manor Sentencing and Nursing Home Restraints
Following up on our 2009 law blog on Neglect in Kentucky Nursing Homes, a nursing home nurse's aide formerly employed at the Madison Manor in Richmond, KY pled guilty Monday to reckless abuse and neglect of an adult. These acts were caught on a camera hidden by relatives in their loved one?s nursing home room at Richmond Health and Rehabilitation Complex.
Lamb, the second nurse's aide at Madison Manor to plead guilty, was sentenced to 12 months in the Madison County Jail, a sentence which may be postponed or commuted if the defendant cooperates in pending cases against other former employees at the Kentucky nursing home.
In other nursing home abuse and neglect news, ABC World News ran a report last week titled Nursing Home Patients Killed by 'Chemical Restraints' to bring attention to chemical restraint use in nursing homes. California Attorney General Jerry Brown (previously making an appearance in the Tennessee Employment Law Blog) is pursing charges of elder abuse against three nursing home officials who could face up to 11 years in prison.
